But what is influencer marketing ? At its heart influencer marketing is about relationships: Relationships that creators have with their audience; Relationships that creators have with brands; Relationship that brands have with their customers; Relationships that you have with each other. It requires a complexity of players to make it happen..that’s why you are all here. Audience Composition We take a participatory systems approach to conference And thank you to everyone who has come to do business and learn. development. We start with an ecosystem analysis to identify the The last thing I will say is that I think there are two general types of key categories and track how money flows through the system and people in business winners and win-winners. come up with ways in which to support in both that and learning and we have a fantastic representation of the entire ecosystem here. Winners to whatever it takes to win which typically means they structure their deals with primarily themselves in mind. While we have some of the biggest agencies players here we have a great representation of the specialized players whether they be start Win-Winners on the other hand look to create win-win deals because ups or new business units in incumbent players that are required to they want to create a sustainable balance which is better for the adjust and adapt to digital change. long term. A few last things I’d like to stay before we kick this off.

Accenture and Fjord design agency now have 900 designers worldwide • In making a connection, first gain a personal recommendation to the desired contact, preferably by someone who works with them internally. Or, create content that expresses your point of view, like a written article. Your contact, or CMO, can then discern if there is an effective connection between you and the company’s brand • Ex. Romeo and Juliet to illustrate story elements: dramatic issue, momentum, fulfillment • Premise: what are people thinking about? If you know your premise, then you can tell the story of your brand • Brand plot: every touch point of your brand must be clear with the consumer • Infusing plot: CPG companies use social media platforms to relay information back to clients in a way that is extremely useful in providing value to the client • Data verses insight: there is so much pressure on clients as half of their salary is held in bonus. Learn to pay attention to data in accountable forms • Ex. Deloitte’s website states: “I’m going to fix your problem in a way that produces growth” – they promise to prove their worth • Influence is now more important than ever before - it is more persuasive than traditional authority in helping to form opinions • Strategy: define who is your audience, brand, and objective + #influencethis 5 QUESTIONS: FACEBOOK ADS ARE A MICRO-INTERRUPTION. IS FACEBOOK AN AD FORM? IS SOUND CRITICAL FOR VIDEOS? • DANA: It depends on what you’re selling and what you’re saying. It feeds the conversation • YouTube: a view is on average 30 seconds, representing better engagement than Facebook where a view is on average 3 seconds WHAT ARE KEY METRICS AT C-SUITE ON SOCIAL? • DANA: All you need for growth is penetration. You need to be there at the instant point of purchase. How interesting, frontal and sticky is the brand message? • It’s difficult to measure if things don’t produce money in a 12-month period HOW DO I CONVINCE A CMO OF SOMETHING’S VALUE IF IT IS NOT TRACKED BY AN ANALYTICS TOOL? (EX. A MOTHER POSTING HOW MUCH THEY LIKE A PRODUCT ON FACEBOOK) • Direct and emotionally driven information from consumers is important and effective; however, for a CMO, there needs to be a measurement. What is the strength of voice for this one consumer? Do they represent many voices – is she a multiplier? RECOMMENDED READING: A STORY IS A PROMISE by Bill Johnson.
